Online Since 2009

Today, The Pink Tarha turns FOUR.

January 24, 2009... we published our first entry in thepinktarha.blogspot.com. 434 entries later, we're still here. The Pink Tarha ladies have grown with the blog over the years. We've discovered a lot more about ourselves and have changed for the better. 

If you noticed the lack of posts for January, it's because we're thinking of entries that would start 2013 right. There's no restaurant review, how-to guide, or fashion update that seem worth the 'first entry of 2013' tag. This anniversary entry seems worth it. So from this day forward, expect updates and entries. Ehermn. ;)

Here's how we spent today:

Celebrating fab FOUR years! Sundrenched, Shoegarfreeruby, Eyecandy, and Sampaguita Pride
Our ever supportive friends! Thank you, ate Grace, Jou, and ate Jennie! We looove you!
A simple picnic on a 'Pink Tarha morning'
Cake pops from Cielo's Sweet Treats in pretty pink and white, yey!
So our cake isn't pink... but it's yummy! :P

Allow us a moment of gratitude... Behind The Pink Tarha are the people behind The Pink Tarha ladies. We'd like to thank our families for being supportive. For always telling us to look behind our back (in case we're being checked by the MOI or the religious police, hehe!) and for encouraging us to write more. We'd like to thank our friends who make us simply happy every day and who accompany us in our retail therapies. To Maryhadalittlehump who started this blog with us... we miss you and we pray the best for you, M! :) A special mention to our boss who believed in us when we told him we're starting a blog (and after, he scared us by saying that the muttawa might read our blog, hehe!) and who now believes we have a brand. To the people behind brands and companies who are very supportive of our events and other endeavors.

And to you, our dear readers, we can never thank you enough for the support and LOVE you've showered the The Pink Tarha over the years. In our fifth year online, we hope you're still there to support and help us grow in and out of the Net world.

Here's to more years of painting Riyadh (and beyond) pink! CHEERS!
THE PINK TARHA LOVES YOU!!! 

Now, we end this entry with the first line we write in our first ever entry because it still holds true for us, four years later: Life in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia isn't that bad. In fact, we happen to cherish it! ! :)


PS. We will be announcing the mechanics of how you can get a limited edition mug (naks!) in the next couple of days. Stay tuned! ;)

The 2012 Expats Blog Awards

Hello dear readers! This is Sundrenched writing this article from our homeland, The Philippines. I'm home for the coming holidays and while I miss the cold, dry winter of Riyadh, I'm happy to visit Manila and my home provinces this month because I get to see my family and friends. I wish you're all having a good day there in the desert.

Here's some good news for The Pink Tarha! 

Recently, The Pink Tarha joined the Expat Blogs, a directory of blogs of expats all over the world. And right on time, they're having their Expats Blog Awards for this year. I'd like to take this opportunity to invite everyone who thinks and feels that we deserve to win to write us a comment in our page: http://www.expatsblog.com/blogs/1252/the-pink-tarha

We are joined there by other bloggers and blogs who are equally deserving of these awards. And we are happy with this opportunity to be nominated. The Pink Tarha has been online for almost four years now and we've been really blessed to have wonderful readers, likers, and fans. We didn't know how wide our influence has become until they tell us themselves. Our event series, The Pink Tarha Mornings, has given us the chance to meet and greet our readers and we've had a successful run since then. Thank you very much for giving us the opportunity to enjoy blogging more. Be rest assured that we'll be here for you, expats and Saudis alike, and help you with your queries in living and working in Saudi Arabia.

Help us win in the 2012 Expats Blog Awards! Pretty please? Leave us a good comment here: http://www.expatsblog.com/blogs/1252/the-pink-tarha 

Announcement of winners is on December 7, 2012. Only 4 days to go! ;)

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

MUCH LOVE!!! ~ Sundrenched
